Frequently asked

Does every shade need Wi-Fi?

Is a Gateway always required?

Not for basic control, but a Gateway is recommended for smart-home features and scheduling. We help you decide if it is right for your home.

Works with Google or Apple?

Yes. We help you set up PowerView to work with your favorite platforms, so you can enjoy voice and app control effortlessly.

Does it lift and tilt?

It depends on the shade you choose. We ensure your selected covering performs the exact movement—lifting, tilting or layering—that you need for your space.

Can I add it to old blinds?

Each blind is unique. We assess your existing windows and current components to see what is possible for your home.
